The effect of students' cultural values on their student-driven learning preference

This study examined the relationship between business students' cultural orientation and student-driven learning styles of 364 higher education business students from Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia. Two previously existing inventories were used: Robertson and Hoffman's Cultural Values Scale, derived from the work of Hofstede, and Honey and Mumford's Learning Style Questionnaire. One of the major findings of this study was that student-driven learning is characterised by students having high masculinity, Confucian and uncertainty avoidance value ratings.
